Chris, This is a hard habit to break people of. We are running HP-UX alongside AIX at our shop. I regularly hear that we have "UNIX and AIX" - so much so that I've given up trying to correct them... :-)

One possible name server configuration could have been - or could be now - to have the bulk of the corporate names managed by a dedicated, typically traditional UNIX, machine, but to have the "mainframe" environment supported by a Communications Server (CS) IP name server linked into the higher level name server. At the very least the CS IP name server could act as a cache.

All we ran on the mainframe were the usual suspects: FTP, SMTP, Telnet. Even though it was (and still is) the most important data processing environment of the company, the mainframe was never big enough to handle a DNS service task for the entire corporation.
